During a security clearance review, FBI officials asked if a longtime employee supported Trump, had COVID-19 vaccine concerns, or attended a Second Amendment rally. A complaint of bias followed.
The employee's clearance was revoked after confirming his support for Trump, gun rights, and vaccine concerns.

It is very recent, and it sucks. The last time I got a clearance was in 2013 when I was an NRC Cyber Inspector. That was when I got the "Q" clearance (after getting the TS and having it moved to the "Q" via reciprocity).
I had zero issues. In fact when they asked me if I ever did drugs I told them about trying weed in Amsterdam. The investigator was shocked and I asked her why. She said nobody ever tells the truth because they think they will be denied - and laughed. You only got denied if you lied about it and they found out from one of your people that was also interviewed. I had the Q all the way through 2018 when it expired and I went to another job.
